The study deals with a small group of ceramic fragments
from the huge pottery collection of the Austrian scholar
Fritz Schachermeyr. Having been picked up during visits
to the various find places or acquired by donations, these fragments have joined the major collection whose
aim was to present the representative pottery types from
the prehistoric cultures of the Mediterranean and Middle
East. For this reason, the pottery fragments in question
provide characteristic evidence of early cultural groups in
the Levant and Near East. The main objects of the study
include the presentation of the fragments in drawings and photographs, their incorporation into a systematic catalogue, the
analysis of their chronological position and their relationship to their different cultural contexts. The find places of the pottery fragments are studied in terms of their cultural strata and the steps along the particular development of ceramics. In conclusion, the different fragments of the collection are classified according to their chronological and cultural position.
